Is there one out there that isn't super shiny?? I'm currently using no7 advanced sun cream especially for the face and it describes itself as anti shine, pfft! It's sooo shinny and greesy . Yuk!

I use Clinique Super City Block SPF 40, on holiday I wear it as my foundation during the day, it's not thick and sticky (like most sun creams), and settles lovely, like a nice moisturiser with a bit of colour.

All other times, I use it as a primer.

I suffer with awful dark patches in the summer, and this really has helped prevent them.

Clarins UV+ sunscreen goes on after moisturiser and I don't find it shiny or greasy.

Vichy Dry touch. It's excellent.

La Roche Posay. I use Pigment Clar SPF 30 everyday but Antihelios is also good and recommended my dermatologists over other brands. I’ve read that in magazines and also experienced being told to use La Roche Posay by a dermatologist when a relative had skin cancer growths removed.

On holiday I wear Neutrogena Sheer Touch as that works well for me and I get it in 110+

La Roche posay anthelios - it’s fantastic under make up, I can even use it instead of primer. A tiny bit goes a long way and it’s good on my sensitive but oily skin.

I love the neutrogena spf 100. It's a great primer and you are fully protected

I really like Murad city skin broad spectrum. It absorbs easily and doesn't leave my skin greasy.
